ABE/GED Program

Adult Basic Education (ABE) is a program designed for individuals 16 years of age and older who have withdrawn from public school. We also serve adults who have graduated, but still have a desire to upgrade their basic skills. Tuition is free, and most learning materials are provided!

The ABE/GED program emphasizes individual help and allows students to progress at their own pace. The program offers lab and small group instruction to achieve goals set for each individual student. Students under the age of 18 must have a withdrawal from their high school.
